Telling the team organizers.
Frankly it is hard to do
demopati. So much needed
found in the first place money.
Sent letters to 15 of Kazan
computer companies and no one answered
even failure. Vot.ladno swear not
I will, well ih.tuda, in general understand
probably. And when for the first found
cool room with cool equipment requested
10 pieces in 2 days out awesome troubles,
the money to take it nowhere. And now to business
joined Vysokogorsky Computer
Center. In contrast to the snickering masters in
Mercedes they were more
attentive to such original
event, and here they are already co-sponsors,
all the money problems solved. Vobschem
vysokogortsy simply the most natural
way saved the party from failure, for what they
special and thank you very much. By the way, such
no small thing as a video of them
already was. Since we broke some cool room,
owners of the hall started a something there and the director
DC could not give it to us already, even at twice
a large amount. Found a place worse and at times
cheaper. And last spring, and after him
summer, it's time for CAFe 99.

with the equipment, long delays between
compo, bad sound, problems with accommodation
Guests for the night, etc. Next year
Excess Team and small private commercial enterprise once again 
planning to hold CAFe and this time to really

high level. Perhaps the first attempt and went

said one prominent politician, the main
start (with the accent on first syllable).
